Color panels, HEX colors


Recommended Posts

So, the main color panel I use is this panel.

Can we have somewhere an option to show or copy the HEX color in lowercase? Please?

Also, if you try to input only three symbols, for example FFF, you get 000FFF and not FFFFFF. This drives me insane, because in web development FFF is white and nowhere near to blue. Separate R# G# B# inputs are kind of useless. Does anyone ever use them?

This panel is almost perfect. Almost, because it lacks HEX input field. Please add it, because I have to open the big color panel just for the HEX code.

In those kind of panels for some reason opacity percentage is missing. And HEX color code input.

If you click through all options in the select box and get back to "Hue" option, you get this. I guess, this is a bug.

Please, add the HEX color input to all "Hue" color panels, make it lowercase, change the logic behind transforming three to six symbols code and add the opacity percentage to every opacity slider.

These small changes will save a lot of my time.

You need a 16 bit RGB colour panel;

I have never mastered color management, period, so I cannot help with that.

You'll get the Hex input field for the Color panel even in RGB/8, as long as you choose the RGB Hex option on the panel.

But it still displays in upper-case, which won't solve @RolWg's desire for seeing them in lower-case. It will accept upper- or lower-case as input, at least :)

We were responding to your request that the Color panel have a hex input field.

But for the Swatches panel, if you're editing a Fill it's available:

I'm also in the same boat here.  I don't so much care about the capitilization.  Instead, there is apparently NO way to determine the level of noise or opacity other than positioning the slider to "hopefully, the right approximate position."  Even in your example screenshot, there is no value for noise.  Also, there is no alpha value indicated in the hex value.
